I buy all my metric fasteners from bolt depot.com. Huge product line. They even have stainless metric stuff. I just spent about $90 on stainless socket head bolts for my 2.5na to get rid of all the rusty hardware.

I just remove all of the old hardware ,glass bead blast it then have it re-plated. Costs $100 for a couple buckets worth and even have the small bracket etc. done at the same time. (This would be thousands worth of new stuff). Also some of the nuts/bolts are Porsche specific so it would be difficult to find them new from any source. Also, unlike new hardware these were all made in W. GERMANY (and you know they make good stuff...) instead of India or worse, China.

I have been very pleased with the hardware I've purchased from Belmetric. They have many of the oddball banjo fittings that are useful on our cars. No complaints about quality from me.
